tail, mark down this moment in history...you win this side battle!
Just read my other newspaper, The Patriot Ledger, and it contained a version of the story from the Associated Press.
almost a split decision though, but I'll concede.
Headline: "Charges against some 'straight pride' protesters move ahead"
So far, one judge has me taking the match.
But most of the article that follows refers to them as "counterprotesters", though they are called protesters too. The writer(s) may be a little uncertain, it seems.
However, the article never refers to the marchers as protesters, interesting,but does say stuff like "...Saturday's parade, which was organized...as a counterpoint to gay pride festivals..."
One judge for you.
Now, though it is debatable whether it could be construed that the marchers were in fact protesting a lifestyle of which they disapprove (could a 'counterpoint' be considered a protest?)...making them protesters...I'll concede.
I'd really much rather hear more on the folks behind the scenes and their motives.
